Job Capítulo 17
Revised Standard Version
1
My spirit is broken, my days are extinct, the grave is ready for me.
2
Surely there are mockers about me, and my eye dwells on their provocation.
3
'Lay down a pledge for me with thyself; who is there that will give surety for me?
4
Since thou hast closed their minds to understanding, therefore thou wilt not let them triumph.
5
He who informs against his friends to get a share of their property, the eyes of his children will fail.
6
'He has made me a byword of the peoples, and I am one before whom men spit.
7
My eye has grown dim from grief, and all my members are like a shadow.
8
Upright men are appalled at this, and the innocent stirs himself up against the godless.
9
Yet the righteous holds to his way, and he that has clean hands grows stronger and stronger.
10
But you, come on again, all of you, and I shall not find a wise man among you.
11
My days are past, my plans are broken off, the desires of my heart.
12
They make night into day; `The light," they say, `is near to the darkness."
13
If I look for Sheol as my house, if I spread my couch in darkness,
14
if I say to the pit, `You are my father," and to the worm, `My mother," or `My sister,"
15
where then is my hope? Who will see my hope?
16
Will it go down to the bars of Sheol? Shall we descend together into the dust?'
